Nice wine. Starts off with oak and subtle texture. The acidity accompanies food well. Comparable to a good Cannonau.

Blend of Garnacha Tinta (60%), Carinena (20%) and Syrah (20%). Dark/Black cherry color. Aromas and flavors of red and black berries/fruits, balsamic vinegar, tomato, roasted herbs, toast and peppery spice. A bit of an earthy, forest floor, funky mineral note on the finish. Bold and powerful. Quite “Rhône-like.” Pretty easy to drink considering the young age.

Аромат в основном перечный, с тонами ягод, шоколада, не пышный.
Во вкусе тона перца и сливы, черники и шоколада, но без сладости. Достаточно плотная текстура, сухое и пряное послевкусие, согревающее и чуть обжигающее гортань.
Лучше хорошее мясное сопровождение.

For its price, a rather good, balanced young Priorat, though without the strenght and personality of the bigger ones.
